Our Wasp Nest Removal Services and Preventive Measures
OpKill Pest Control offers specialized wasp nest removal services tailored to the unique challenges posed by different types of wasp nests. Listed below are also some preventive measures you can take to reduce the risk of future wasp nest infestations:
- Thorough Assessment: Our trained technicians conduct a detailed inspection to identify the type, location, and size of the wasp nest.
- Risk Assessment: Evaluate potential risks associated with the nest’s proximity to human activity.
- Chemical Treatments: Application of insecticides directly to the nest to eliminate adult wasps and larvae. This method ensures immediate knockdown and residual control.
- Physical Removal: For nests located in accessible areas, physical removal may be recommended. This involves safely dismantling the nest and disposing of it to prevent reinfestation.
- Environmentally Friendly Solutions: Utilization of eco-friendly products and methods whenever possible to minimize environmental impact.
Seal cracks, gaps, and openings around doors, windows, and utility penetrations to prevent wasps from entering buildings.
Schedule periodic inspections to detect early signs of wasp activity and nest formation.
Keep trees, shrubs, and bushes trimmed away from structures to reduce potential nesting sites.

Identification and Risks
Wasp nests can pose several risks to residents and businesses in Phoenix:
Types of Wasps
Paper Wasps: Build small, umbrella-shaped nests usually found under eaves, in attics, or under roof overhangs.
Yellowjackets: Build nests in underground burrows, wall voids, or aerial nests attached to structures.
Hornets: Build large, spherical nests usually found in trees, shrubs, or on buildings.
Recognizing Nests
Appearance: Wasp nests vary in size and shape depending on the species. They are typically made of chewed wood fibers mixed with saliva, creating a papery texture.
Location: Nests can be found in high, sheltered areas such as under roof eaves, in trees, bushes, attics, and even underground.
Risk: Stings
Wasps can sting multiple times, causing painful reactions and potentially severe allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
Risk: Property Damage
Nests built near structures can cause aesthetic damage and, in the case of larger nests, structural damage.
Risk: Public Safety
Nests located in high-traffic areas increase the risk of accidental stings and confrontations.
